Reason for recall
Internal quality control procedures were not followed correctly for the testing/release of three lots of 8234/8235. This resulted in the release of products that should have failed and been discarded. The concentration of one target (HPV 16 L1) was low enough to cause QC failures, no detection, or invalid results on some instruments and assays.
